Fit to take possession (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

appropriate

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'fit' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'take possession' is the second definition.
'appropriate' can be an answer for 'take' (appropriating is a kind of taking). I am not certain of the 'possession' bit.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for appropriate that I've seen before include "Befitting" , "Trouser" , "lift" , "Proper; take" , "Proper; steal" .)
